Question

A bucket resting on the floor of an elevator contains an incompressible fluid of density ρ. When the elevator has a downward acceleration of magnitude a the pressure difference between two points in a fluid, separated by a vertical distance Δh, is given by:

ρ(g – a)Δh (E) ρgaΔh

ρaΔh

ρgΔh
